SHOULD I PLAY THE DAY BEFORE? Please skip this game. Don’t hurt yourself like this. The Day Before offers nothing but painful technical issues, boring extraction shooter gameplay, unpolished visuals, and a series of other problems that make this game not even worth considering. TIME PLAYED I played The Day Before for two and a half hours. I completed the first chapter and a few missions, but due to incredibly bad technical issues, I could not continue playing. The problems in

Resident Evil 4 is a game I’d recommend to absolutely anyone. It’s a masterpiece of the survival horror genre, with smooth, satisfying combat and some fantastically spooky set pieces. The original was already a stone-cold classic, but the 2023 remake refined its graphics and gameplay mechanics, making the game feel better than ever. It’s something that everyone should play at least once, but if you have literally any other options, you probably shouldn’t play it on mobile.

ITs a good game. What can i say

SHOULD I PLAY HELSKATE? Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater fans should definitely give this a look. That said, you might want to wait until it’s had a few updates. Helskate is a hack-and-slash roguelike that also happens to be a skateboarding game, and it just hit early access. It’s a ton of fun to shift between monster slaying and skateboarding tricks, but I ran into several issues during my playtime. If you pick it up now, you’ll probably have a good time, but I suspect it’ll be much better once it’s had more time in the oven.

SHOULD I PLAY TITAN QUEST: ULTIMATE EDITION? If you’ve been searching for a microtransaction-free alternative to Diablo Immortal or are craving some old-school hack-and-slash action, Titan Quest: Ultimate Edition deserves a closer look. While this action-RPG definitely shows its age, it’s an addictive game that runs perfectly on mobile. I had a ton of fun fighting my way through hordes of monsters, picking up piles of loot, and building a character that was a perfect fit for my playstyle.

SHOULD I PLAY DIMENSION HUNTER? Check this one out if you’re into roguelites and like bullet hell mechanics, but skip it if you’re not that into the genre. Dimension Hunter is a fun and fast-paced dungeon crawler that’s easy to pick up and play, but aside from its awesome pixel art, it doesn’t do anything that makes it stand out from the crowd. It might not be the most original game, but there are plenty of cool power-ups and weird monsters to fight, so die-hard roguelite fans should definitely give it a try.

The witch from Left 4 Dead is iconically scary!!!

There’s never been a better time to be a gamer that loves creepypasta. You can find all kinds of creepypasta games across nearly every possible genre. Bem Feito is a deceptively cute life sim filled with sinister secrets. World of Horror is a 1-bit adventure game that pays homage to classic creepypasta tales as well as the works of H.P. Lovecraft and Junji Ito. There are multiplayer games inspired by the

Horrifying is an understatement to what you see in the Silent Hill franchise. The most outstandingly horrific creatures I’ve ever seen were in Silent Hill 2. You can find a lot of them in this picture.

Towaga: Among Shadows is a casual but insanely fun action-adventure game with beautiful 2D visuals and smooth animation that explores a world of darkness from the perspective of a light-bringing warrior. After an hour of monster slaying, I’ve come to enjoy Towaga: Among Shadows’s simple shoot ‘em up gameplay and storyline. In Towaga: Among Shadows, I embarked on an adventure to save a stunning Aztec-themed world from evil monsters seeking to ravage everything in its sight. I had to battle against various creatures using abilities and a beam of light that I could redirect willingly with the swoosh and hold of a finger. I’ve found the story mode more enjoyable so far, despite only dabbling in the game’s survival mode, but I’ve yet to play multiplayer.

The resident evil series is pretty well known for being growtesk. From when I played Biohazard, they didn’t hold out on me. This was the only resident evil game I played. That didn’t stop me from completing the game. All the monsters looked cool and felt disgusting to look at. Even the endgame boss was innocent at first. Throughout the game, you would see an old woman in a wheelchair. She didn’t seem to have much purpose; seeing her in different places of the house. That is until you get to the end of the game. She turns out to the little girl that caused of what has been going on in the game. She just wanted to have a family. Then, she turns into some kind of black, gooey, and kinda stringy looking face. But that isn’t the only thing you have to face. You had to go against the entire family before get to the end. The strong and ruthless father, the big loving mother, the crazy and sadistic son. Not to mention all the molded creatures all over the house; with only a mouth to attack. There are many games of resident evil like this, but this is the one that I remember.

I wouldn't call this a bias or anything. I was never a huge fan of Left 4 Dead, but I was a big admirer of its community and all of the memes and content created for it. Darktide has had many ups and downs to reach to where it is today. The game originally released in 2022 and while it was poorly received for a variety of issues and incomplete features the gameplay was and still is one of the strongest selling point for those who stuck around and for those who remember. It's fun and engaging! I couldn't really get into it back in Beta because it didn't really feel like a community and well, I could barely even play it because the game just would not work half of the time. Nor were any of the players talkative or communicative.

ULTRA RARE Gale-Begetting Heavenly Four, Tetra Sylphid The esper form of four wind fairy sisters who fly using the large wings sprouting from their heads. It is said that they possess the power to command a flurry of colossal tornadoes, and once they become enraged, there is no one capable of bringing the ensuing chaos under control. Roaring Thunderclap, Ramuh A wizened sage who wields lightning to a frightening degree. Though there are some black mages who can control lightning, Ramuh's breadth of skill and destructive power are far superior. His lightning is believed to be that which judges the corrupt, and those with guilt in their hearts fear him to no end.

Here we are with the new generation horror game with a simple concept but do you think the horror is simple.....

DEAD BY DAYLIGHT x DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Dead by Daylight is an online asymmetric multiplayer survival horror game by Behaviour Interactive. One player is the Killer, while four others are Survivors. The Killer hunts and sacrifices Survivors to appease the Entity, while Survivors must evade capture and power up generators to escape. It's a game absolutely packed with murderous monsters, both original and licensed from other franchises.

SHOULD I PLAY MONSTER HUNTER NOW? Skip it unless you’re really itching for a Pokémon Go alternative. Monster Hunter Now is the latest Pokémon Go clone from Niantic, and while it’s entertaining enough, it doesn’t capture the qualities that make Monster Hunter great. There are plenty of familiar monsters to fight, like Pukei-Pukei and Barroth, but the battles aren’t much more than a series of button taps. I love the idea of

SHOULD I PLAY DEVIL SLAYER RAKSASI? Totally play this. Devil Slayer Raksasi takes the top-down roguelite approach of The Binding of Isaac and layers on a dark fantasy vibe that would be at home in a FromSoft game. This tough but addictive combination left me wanting to keep playing even after I’d wrapped up the demo. Thankfully it has multiple characters to try!
